In a VERY LARGE saucepan, heat & stir water, whiskey, coffee, butter and cocoa until butter melts. Remove from heat and beat in sugar. Cool slightly, then whisk in the eggs, blending thoroughly.

Turn the batter into a greased & floured 9" tube pan. Smooth thetop of the batter with a spatula. Bake the cake on the middle level of a preheated oven (325¼F) for 60-75 minutes until a cake tester or skewer comes out clean.

IMMEDIATELY sprinkle with the remaining 2 tbsp whiskey, or wrap in a whiskey-soaked cheese cloth after it has been cooled on a rack and removed from the pan. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
